Talk:Laosaurus

Laosaurus gracilis
Galton (2006) didn't address the status of Laosaurus gracilis, so it's possible that it is congeneric with Laosaurus as first named, if Galton can re-examine the holotype of L. gracilis, YPM 1875.
 * Galton (1983) had previously assigned L. gracilis to Othneilia consor (=Othneilosaurus consor Galton 2007). Carpenter and Galton (2018) more recently assigned Othneilosaurus consor to Nanosaurus agilis.

The image of the pubis is that of Triceratops porosus (figure 4, Plate 79, Dinosaurs of North America). The pubis of "Laosaurus" is figure 1, Plate 79, Dinosaurs of North America. Carpenter, Kenneth (talk) 01:49, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
